Thanks. The battery is the same size as the previous one, but I can't remember when I got it how long it lasted. To those of you with 2000 MAh batteries what settings do you use, with rockbox if you use it, and how long battery life should I be looking for? I used it today and it did not get hot. Perplexing, is there a way I can test it?@dmehler,
If your battery doesn’t last long and gets real hot, it is defective. Most likely an internal short. I would discontinue use ASAP.
The risk of fire with li-ion is very real. The electrolytic material they contain is extremely flammable. That’s why they catch fire and explode.
Li-ion batteries contain an extremely high energy density, which is both good and bad.
